RE-VOLT RADIO INTERVIEWS: NAOMI SARGEANT (TIMEOUT BEIRUT)

Time Out Beirut is a arts, culture and entertainment magazine. A guide to all that is happening in Beirut every month both in print and online. It's part of the International group Time Out which has over 37 city magazine's around the world.

They provide a platform for up and coming musicians in Lebanon by supporting them through the magazine and online and through promotion of events.

I caught with Naomi Sergeant whose is the Director of Time Out Beirut to have a discussion about the magazine business in Lebanon & the Middle East, their support to non-commercial artists & their future plans & her views on FM radios in Lebanon.

Cover on the right was the Nov'10 issue & was actually designed by the Gorillaz themselves since they had a phenomenal show in Beirut & was actually interviewed by Timeout Beirut. You can find that interview along many others & news about Beirut City in TimeOut Beirut Official Website:

MY SHOW ON RADIO LEBANON (96.2FM)

I was lucky to actually play Arabic Hip Hop for the first time on the Radio in Lebanon. I believe radio stations there dont play & support any Arabic Hip Hop artists which is a big shame.

My man Freddy from Radio Lebanon (96.2FM) has a show called the TRIP & he invited me over to play some of the tracks that RE-VOLT has been playing ONLINE..

Big Shout out to him for letting me do this .

I really enjoyed this set & tell you the truth I felt proud hearing songs like Long live Palestine by Lowkey & Al Kofeyye Arabia by Shadia Mansour being played on the Lebanese National Radio! The set also included tracks by Offendum, The Narcicyst, DJ lethal skillz & many other MC's! (Check it out below & let me know what you think)

The FULL RADIO SET is available here:

RE-VOLT RADIO INTERVIEWS : ESLAM JAWAAD

Eslam Jawaad is a rapper of Lebanese-Syrian origin. I got introduced to his music since I started re-volt back in October 09. He mainly raps in English but does have few Arabic tracks that are mind blowing. Jawaad is all about being real and true to your self.. Whether you are commercial or not ; he praises & supports real artists that follow their true lives. He has collaborated with the likes of Gorillaz, Wu-Tang on big Hip Hop shows all around the world.

Eslam is currently based in London but does appear in shows in the Middle East & the region. RE-VOLT will of course work on getting Eslam to perform for his fans in the region!

He's currently working on his 2nd album after The Mammoth Tusk..(if you didnt peep that .. do it now)

RE-VOLT caught up with this real hip hop artist for a great discussion on his news..Check it out. Mad respect to Eslam for his time
